Digital alternative investment specialist Yieldstreet is launching a new platform that allows investors the unique opportunity to invest in individual companies.
The first offerings include the convenience of investing directly in established startups Fetch Rewards and Flutterwave in partnership with VC investment firm Greycroft, which has $2 billion-plus in total capital commitments across its funds. Yieldstreet will partner with other prominent venture capital firms as more deals are offered on the platform giving investors access to leading startup companies before they go public.
Investments in Fetch and Flutterwave, plus future direct VC offerings on Yieldstreet, will primarily be made at their Series C funding round or later as companies at these stages tend to have proven their product concept and scalability.
